3. FAQ

1. init.toml or init.vim?

   TL;DR: Choose init.vim. Don’t use init.toml.
   Long answer: Here are several reasons for this:

   • SpaceVim doesn’t provide detailed documents of variable name you can use. Under this circumstance, it is not smart to use init.toml although SpaceVim recommand you to use toml-style config.
     

   • You need nobody to tell you what variable name you can use in your vim script, just by looking up the source code of SpaceVim.

   • For beginner: Toml-style of config won’t help you develop skills related with vim script.

   • In order to define your custom code/functions, you have to use bootstrap functions. You will then pollute SpaceVim’s source code.
